      Yep, it just has you set a password, confirm it, and even set a hint if you want. Works on web or mobile.

          Yes, there’s no other implementation I know of for provider-to-provider encrypted email. O365 is very similar. Recipients can then reply back too and the Proton user receives it directly.

              Ah yes, forgot about PGP. Haven’t used it in a long time myself, but Proton automatically creates a PGP signature for you. You can just attach your public key that’s already on your account and it’ll encrypt your mail. It natively supports PGP/MIME.

                  It was pretty easy when I tested it just a few min ago, yes. Maybe they step the missed was adding your public key to the contact entry for you. As soon as you do that “encrypt” is enabled by default for you.
